I have heard from two different sources than we are well under the cap. One said £380,000 although i would be hesitant to trust this guy and another who I know well said £300,000 and I would trust his call.

If we are upto the cap then there are quite a few players earning well above their worth.

Can we refund you for the money for Daz Clark so you've got a few quid more to spend?

Would people have been happy if we would have recruited below standard players that may have been available NO. they would be calling for Smiths head over his recruitment. The club have siad that the quality of player was not available end of. We need to stick with the youth and hope that some come through, if not keep looking for the special player that warrents the big bucks.

Do people seriously believe that we are £300k to £400k under the cap?

At most we'd be Briers' wage less whatever up-grade Russell got for this year plus whoever replaced Briers in the 25 first tier players.

If King was on £600k (source: wigan forum) then Briers must have been on £400k at least

Benji Marshall was released from his contract today. He'd be alright for you lot. Bet you'd get him for £379,999.99 as well.

Well we can't all be as lucky as to have Lance Hohaia in our ranks can we? Just keep dousing your Luke Walsh figurine in holy water and praying he stays fit.

Woh there horsey. It wouldn't be the strangest thing in the world if he ended up with you. There presumably won't be too many NRL sides with loads of cap room sloshing around at this stage of the season,so it could fit.

And from the rumours on our board at the moment it seems Walsh won't be around for too much longer.

Aus $700000 is £387000 so that would put us in the game if the cap mattered, but technically as a union convert, I think he'll be cap exempt, so he's open season for every RL club.

No, no he's not cap exempt. Read the new talent pool rules for further details

Eh ! Why where's he going? Is he injured?

I dont like Saints and certainly dont want them to win anything but I would be gutted to see Luke Walsh leave SL, he is a great player to watch.

...and there were rumours about St's wanting GOB a couple of weeks ago.

To replace wheeler. If rumours are to be believed, were in the very strange position next year of having to replace all our senior halfbacks! Fwiw Walsh will see out his contract

Walsh does seem to be enjoying it over here
